| Abstract |
These reports are translations of reports finalized in June and December 1993. Main conclusions: benzoic acid and sodium benzoate show slight acute toxicity; benzoic acid has a mildly irritating effect on human skin; animal studies indicate that m-toluidine is slightly toxic, the target organ being the haematopoietic system; repeated occupational exposure to C.I. Reactive Black 5 (Remazol Black), particularly in the dust form, may cause contact allergy and respiratory sensitization; there is no evidence of genotoxic potential for any of these substances. |
